Looks like the stats are working again. Making this topic - worth it.

Damn, looking at the stats right now I can see a huge decrease in the peak players of all those top games, guess the starting of school has to do with it Plus it's early.

There have just been little signs. First off, there's the new Community 'discussions'. And then they also removed the Forums tab on the top of the page (unless you're in the forums).

Will they be able to move all of the useful info on this forum over to Discussions?

No idea. Well, I'm sure they can copy and paste stuff over, but that'd be a lot of work lol.

Actually, on looking at my link, it shows as being forums.steamgames.com rather than forums.steampowered.com, yet when I click to go back to General Steam Discussion, I see the exact same topics as there are on spuf... Is it the US page, because I'm logged out there when I go there? I got to the page from a Google search which is the only explanation I have for how I arrived there instead of spuf.

Yea, I found that strange as well lol. But you can just change steamgames to steampowered and it'll bring you to the steampowered link :P

Doesn't change how the community is already splitting. So many games have active group discussions and then these forums have dead game sections.

The way they removed the forum link on the site makes it clear they don't care about these forums.

Sure, they'll leave them up but it seems clear they want the game hub discussions to be the main focus.

I suppose it's also too much work to have an alphabetical listing of games in the game hubs landing page as well.

I really want to endlessly scroll, click or type in a thousand searches to see which games have discussions only to find the thousands of contibutions are only screenshots.
